RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Stupid school bullshit
Today is a early release day and normally I wouldn't go to school but my dumb ass teacher had all of us go to school just to take a test we really shouldn't be taking the asbat test. Its a test to determine if we are smart enough to go into the military and most of us were not going or already took it (last year some people took it not me) . The worst happened when we got stuck in there for 2 hours because the guy who dropped the test off was late and then when he got there he told us if we took this we would be stuck in there until 1:15 and then we would have to come back later to finish it. Ok in my class we normally stay until 8:45 and we leave but some of us had to go to work today including me and we were pissed needless to say. The teacher didn't tell us before we came here what the test was about or how long it would take (She only threatened to kick us out of the program if we didn't show up). Before we started the military guy told us that we could leave now just give him out test booklet. I had to walk home ok so I never would have made it home in time so I handed in my booklet got my stuff and walked out myself with 2 guys I talked too. Next thing you know over half the whole autitorium got up and left (only the rotc stayed) And the admins started freaking out then I started the 70 minute hour walk home.
I know that my teacher is going to be pissed tomorrow but I don't really give a shit..

You left after you finished the test because you had to get to work. I don't see how they can condemn you for that.

Good luck dealing with the bitch tmrw.
But HoS.. why wouldn't you want to join the military? Since when are people on this site anti-war or even god forbid... something anti-american?
I highly suggest Mobb Deep's albums The Infamous and Hell on Earth, if you have not listened to it yet.

Yay, take a test to see if you can go in the army, or you're out of the program, that's completely fair.
